Who is welcomed to our Berlin street art tours?
Although we don’t always understand Street art or graffiti, it is made for everyone to see! It communicates, comments, demands, argues, claims, but it is most of all a dialogue between artists and viewers.
Join the discussion with my Berlin street art tour. Come and discover and react to the artworks. The aim of street art is to dialogue with Berliners, between artists and with you. It shakes up the urban aesthetic and political turmoil of Berlin and our times. It concerns us.

Ma visite guidée en français du « Berlin street art » vous raconte son histoire, ses enjeux et ses rebondissements. Les œuvres sont peintes sur les murs de la ville. Le street art est évolutif. Aucune œuvre n’est figée. Certaines sont effacées, modifiées, par la ville, ses habitants ou par les artistes eux-mêmes.
Pour bien comprendre les œuvres, une petite explication est parfois nécessaire, ainsi qu’un rappel historique de ce qu’il se passait dans le quartier à l’époque de leur réalisation. Je vous situe le contexte et vous donne les clés pour mieux apprécier les fresques et autres créations berlinoises.
Ma visite guidée street art de Berlin nous permet d’échanger nos regards sur ces peintures engagées. Explorons ensemble les traces, les luttes et la créativité haute en couleur qui se jouent ici en public.
